client_init.py needs a better usage message #651

trel commented 3 weeks ago

when the passed arguments are not what is expected, the error message is not terribly helpful

$ python irods/client_init.py abc
did not recognize authentication scheme argument

or when empty...

$ python irods/client_init.py
